Forever

I am still reading Forever by Jude Devereaux. A few days ago, I said that Darci Monroe, the lead character, was naive. I was wrong about that. Now that I am over halfway through the book, I can see that Darci overcame a sorry childhood with her positive attitude.

She and the male lead, Adam Montgomery, have gotten past the stage of driving each other crazy. Darci is letting Adam hold and comfort her. Plus, she can telepathically make him want to kiss her. This is what I love about romance novels- I feel like Darci and Adam are a couple that I know. I do not get that personal connection from mens' books.
